The Glass Grenade

Om boken

What if your worst enemy lived inside your head?

From the outside, Maggie’s life looks perfect – a comfortable home with her husband, children, friends. Inside, it’s different. The savage voice in her head tells her she is useless, stupid, and failing.

At one of their regular dinners with friends, a shocking event reveals her fragility. Maggie finds herself facing a series of challenges that force her to question what she can rely on, and who she can trust. As familiar certainties fall away, she must navigate loss, change, and the uneasy process of starting again.

As Maggie tries to rebuild her life, her inner critic Wormwood still fights to regain control, seizing on fear, shame, and exhaustion. Each step forward risks being undone by the voice that knows her weaknesses best.

The Glass Grenade is a compelling and darkly humorous novel about depression, resilience, and survival. It’s the story of a woman learning how to live with – and push back against – an enemy no one else can see.
